Dave & Carol Kochendorfer

David and Carol Kochendorfer have served in pastoral ministry for more than 20 years in the Pacific Conference of The Evangelical Church. Following a Work & Witness trip to Brazil in 2003 they began to sense God leading them to full-time service. They were assigned to Brazil with Evangelical Church Missions in March 2004 where they served until 2011 when they were reassigned to the Southwest U.S. field. The field office is in Kirtland, NM.

David and Carol are both graduates of Vennard College in Iowa and David graduated from Western Evangelical Seminary in Oregon. They originally sensed God leading them into missions for full-time service following a work and witness trip with their Oregon church. David brings years of ministry experience and is involved in preaching, teaching and mentoring leaders in the Four Corners Conference of The Evangelical Church. Carol is gifted in music and uses her talent when called upon. She provides hospitality for mission field visitors and with her husband, provides leadership and guidance to short-term missionaries.

The Kochendorfers have two children: Jeremy is serving as the Stateside Ministry Coordinator for Evangelical Church Missions and Nathan serving as a youth pastor in Portland, Oregon.
